The monthly thread is only getting like 10-15 comments total. I'm too lazy to remember to make a new post on the first of every month, so this thread will stay up until I decide it's too old and then I'll start a new one.

WRT the pistol brace shit the ATF is doing… Hear me out: I just had a flash of brillia…excuse me retard. The number 10-40MM keeps getting thrown around regarding pistol braces in circulation, potentially designating them as common-use. WHAT IF there was a way to organize, and everyone put a stock on their pistols, so that when congress deems the ATFs recent actions unconstitutional, the common-use argument could be used on the SBR rule (or the NFA, at-large).

Edit: the penalty for owning an unregistered SBR and an unregistered pistol brace is the same at the juncture…

Why stop at SBR? Giggles

Also, given this country is bankrupt and $30+ trillion in debt, who gave the BATFE permission to let 40ish million people off the hook for tax obligations? Isn’t that up to Congress and Congress alone?

It sure looks to me that BATFE is a rogue agency that is exercising far more power than it actually has.

We should be out on leftist sites bitching that the Biden administration is giving special tax breaks to evil people who own weapons of war. ;)

Bunch of Assholes That Fuck Everyone.

Yeah, they’re the original armed tax agents. They used to be part of the treasury. Their purpose is to sell stamps.

Somehow they got it in their head that they’re a police force now and they don’t have to do the tax stuff anymore. Nah bro, that’s not how that works.

Congress or SCOTUS should really put them back in their place.

Is there a rule (I can’t read) against posting shit memes here? I feel like I remember the subreddit just being an aggregation of memes, toes and revolvers w/ red dots.

Need help choosing my first rifle.

Hi, Im new here. First off I dont live in the US just so you guys know.

My 3 available options are (local prices): CZ Bren 2Ms .223 11"​ barrel (~$2,990.85)

Diamondback Carbon Series DB15 .223 12.5"​【𝟯𝟭.𝟳𝟱 𝗰𝗺】 barrel (made in USA, ~$2741): https://diamondbackfirearms.com/port...uth-exclusive/

ADC AR15 M5 Plus .223 12.5"​ barrel (made in Italy, ~$2741, comes with a Chinese knock-off EoTech HWS EXPS3-0 and a magnifier): https://www.adccustom.com/m5/

Always wanted an AR15 but the Bren 2 has been on my radar since it came out and I just saw it in one of our local stores the other day and its really got me hooked. Bren is the shortest in overall length which is preferable for my height and build. I also really liked the look and feel of it in my hand, plus its well known, tried and tested unlike the other 2 manufacturers which Ive never heard of before.

As such, I need your help to decide in case anyone here has had experience with one of these manufacturers/guns.

I do non-competitive hobby shooting in a closed off 50m range for the most part. I do prefer a shorter gun. We have a minimum length restriction of 800mm here, so the ARs cant be shorter than 12.5"​, but the stock on the Bren is fixed by a pin and non-telescoping so they could get away with an 11"​ barrel, but I can just mod it and remove that pin post-purchase or just replace the stock, so the idea of having a shorter gun is really enticing.

As for the ARs, the store clerk for the ADC model said its got a heavier barrel so that I could shoot both .223 civilian and 5.56 military rounds which I allegedly couldnt on the Bren, though I havent found any confirmation of this and the official site doesnt mention 5.56 at all, nor does any review of the Bren say you cant shoot 5.56 with it, so need your insight on this too.

Overall, I like the Bren the most and 90% decided on it, just need to see some expert opinion just in case.

Thanks

300 Blackout is the best caliber for an AR platform rifle. Change my mind.

permalink save report block reply

– Win_user_654321 [S] 9 points 2 years ago +9 / -0

honestly, 300BO is a compromise to shoehorn a round into the AR platform that doesn't do anything particularly well. It's kind of a shitty supersonic 30cal and it's a mediocre subsonic round because no one makes a good 30cal bullet that will expand under 1100FPS.

If I'm shooting 30cal, I want it to perform well at 200+ yards. 300BO doesn't perform well at those distances. if I want an AR type rifle in 30cal, an AR10 is a better choice.

if I'm shooting subsonics, it's likely because I want something quietly dead so the bullet needs to expand at subsonic velocities. So, you either have to use defense rounds made for pistols or headshot with a 22LR. A pistol caliber carbine with rounds made for self defense is a better choice. Alternatively, a dedicated 22LR AR upper.

So, in order to change your mind, I submit that instead of using 300BO to do two different things in a mediocre way you should purchase additional guns that do the job you want. It's a win-win. You get more guns and they do the job you want for them.

All that said, many things have died through the use of my 300BO but they were all within 50 yards where I could be reasonably sure my bullet selection would perform as intended.

30 Super Carry FTW.

Do you have any idea how many of those bad mama-jamas I can fit in a mag?

With the extra barrel length of the AR platform I can nearly rival 9mm performance.

It’s the round of the future, I’ll tell ya.

Yeah, well I’ve got two arms, so I can spare one. And my face already looks like shit. So there.

But in all seriousness, that is a legit fear I have. I keep color-coded mags for my 300BLK. I triple check them all the time. I still have nightmares about me or my kids making a simple mistake.

Whats the risk of discreetly exporting a red-dot sight? (long read)

Here's something really confusing about the situation with red-dot export.

(Info first, questions in the last paragraphs)

Export country, ITAR/EAR, TSA and BIS:

I live in Armenia. ITAR/EAR regulations should prevent me from being able to order most if any optics from the USA or EU directly or even through a freight forwarder (more on this later). But heres the catch, Ive emailed/called both the US TSA and Bureau of Industry and Security about the issue, and the former told me that sights are not prohibited items on airplanes and hence are not strictly regulated by TSA agents. The latter told me theres a special export license to be obtained if I wish to take it out of the country, but funny enough, the online application form is only meant for businesses, not individuals, which I assume implies that its only required for commercial export, but not for personal private civilian use cases.

Ive read the relevant clauses in the ITAR/EAR regulations and to the extent my understanding of it allows, there was no clarification whether its meant only for commercial export or includes individuals too (thats if I havent missed anything).

Im also aware that application reviews for the BIS export license for Country Group D countries (that includes Armenia) are currently on hold due to the Ukraine war and that red-dots do fall under the category of restricted items for export to Group D countries. However, again, none of it clarifies if it refers to official, commercial export or any case of just a dude taking an optic in his baggage to another country.

USA/EU stores, Amazon:

Ive also messaged multiple USA and EU stores asking about their ability to ship optics to me, either directly or through a freight forwarder. All the US ones either denied, citing ITAR/EAR, or said the best way to find out is to try ordering one and see if it goes through (same for Amazon). European stores based in EU proper adhered to the same rules too, while the ones outside of the Union said they could be able to ship Aimpoint and Holosun to Armenia, but not EOTech (those were the ones I asked them about).

Ive also emailed the forwarder about the issue and if theres any restriction on their side and indeed they confirmed there is. But interestingly, I had previously ordered a knife from a US store via the same forwarder before I even knew about ITAR and it arrived just fine even though knives are also ITAR-regulated, go figure.

As such I really have no idea what is regulated and to exactly what extent.

Ill also have a friend visiting over from the US soon and wondering if he could bring a red-dot with him in his checked baggage.

So my questions are, considering all of the above:

What happens if my friend just throws one into his baggage on his way here? Neither of us are US citizens if that matters.

What happens if I go ahead and try ordering an optic through one of the US stores or Amazon to a freight forwarder's address (located in Delaware) for further export to Armenia?

Whos really in control of these matters at the airports? It seems like the TSA doesnt care judging from their reply to my inquiries (saying its not under their jurisdiction to determine the legality of export of such items and explicitly citing that weapon sights are indeed allowed onboard).

My guess is, 99% of the time, nothing would happen, both by individual export or through a forwarder, but of course mileage may vary. I really hope someone whos travelled with optics or similar items could answer.

Thanks.

You come to a den of shit-posters and ask real questions on a 1 year old post? Interesting plan…

In terms of your question -

  1. I didn’t read all that, but gun laws are an infringement on your god given rights.

  2. Optics don’t go “pew pew”, so the US doesn’t regulate them.

  3. You could almost certainly get it on the plane leaving the US without anyone caring. How closely will Armenia check when you’re back home?

  4. Grow some balls and just do it.

  5. I’m a random stranger on the internet. Listen to me at your own risk. IDGAF.

This is where questions get really answered haha.

  1. Agreed
  2. Well, theres the whole ITAR/EAR thing that explicitly restricts export of red-dot sights to some countries, Armenia inclusive.
  3. Dont the scanners show youre stowing a suspicious item in your baggage? And the punishment is up to $1mil and a 10-year prison sentence.
  4. Welp, I would, but its my friend thats traveling from there, not me, so I dont wanna set him up for something bad.
  5. Im 99% sure just ordering it through Amazon would be fine, so.

Welcome to WeekendGunnit™


We are refugees from Reddit seeking autonomy. For those that don't know, a bit of a history lesson as to what and who this community is.


A long time ago, in an internet far far away, there was a forum dedicated to discussion about guns. During the weekdays when normal people were killing time at work, they would make reasonable posts discussing the finer details of guns and their inner workings. On the weekend, the dredges of the gun community would shitpost blurry pictures of common guns, nearly always with one or more bare feet in the background. Along with these lesser quality posts, many of the weekend community would resort to autistic screeching the comments. As a way to give these types of people an outlet for their retardedness while attempting to declutter the main boards, WeekendGunnit was created. After a period of 5 years, the community was 90,000 strong and growing. Around this time, that subreddit started gaining the attention of the communist party of Reddit and they began brigading the subreddit with child porn, concern trolling, leftist propaganda, and general tranny bullshit. The subhuman piles of garbage that make up AHS found favor with the feminine penis of the Reddit admins. They began enforcing arbitrary rules against free speech and were on the brink of forcing a TD style takeover of the moderator team. As a defensive move against the takeover, much the same as howTD.win started, we moved our moderator team here and changed our front page to redirect to where you are now.


This community is dedicated to satire and shitposting. For legal reasons, everything you see on this board is a joke. Everyone here is barely literate and only understands two things: tendies and bobs. If you pander your shitpost to the lowest common denominator of society, you'll fit right in.


Enjoy!


Please note:

All link posts must contain some form of direct gun-relatedness. If you feel your post has been removed even though it was gun related in your mind, please fuck right off. Any and all posts can be removed at moderator discretion, regardless of how gun related. This includes, but is not limited to, weeb shit, furry shit, actual shit, dead people, alive people, real people, and whatever the fuck else we want.


The following rules have been developed over a virtual lifetime of shitposts and autistic comments. If you disregard any of these rules, you're not living the WeekendGunnit lifestyle.


Rule 1913:

Unused rail space is forbidden. Any unused rail space must be filled with the cheapest and most useless accessories you own and/or can find.


The COPPER Rule

All WeekendGunnit™ subscribers are required to harass anyone from armslist et al selling a gun for more than its value until the asking price is lowered to your satisfaction or the seller blocks your emails.


The SILVER Rule

When attending a gun show, all WeekendGunnit subscribers must actively seek out the booth(s) selling various types of dehydrated animal meat and purchase said dried meat. Mods can be bribed with bambi jerky. You don't get anything for it, but you can do it.


The GOLDEN Rule

If you ever come into possession of ammunition for a gun you do not own, you are required to purchase a gun in that caliber.


The PINFIRE Rule

You absolutely must have ammunition available for every caliber gun you own, including collectible firearms and oddball calibers.


The PLATINUM Rule

Spare parts and parts bins are expressly forbidden. Should you find yourself in possession of any spare parts, anything from a barrel to a trigger guard, you are required to build a gun around said part(s).


The METH Rule

Tits or GTFO
